After returning to the Cultivators’ Haven, Yuan went straight to the top floor to see if ixiu was still cultivating, and just as he’d expected, the door to her cultivation room was still closed shut.
Although he wanted to go inside to make sure, he didn’t have the key, as it was inside the room with ixiu.
"I probably shouldn’t disturb ixiu if she’s still cultivating, right?" Yuan asked Xiao Hua.
She nodded and said, "That would be very dangerous, as disturbing soone that’s absorbed in cultivation could be harmful. There are even cases where so cultivators have been crippled after being disturbed during their breakthroughs. This is why cultivators must find a secure and peaceful place before they begin their cultivation."
"Crippled? That’s definitely not good. I guess we can only wait outside until she’s done." Yuan said as he took a seat directly in front of the door to ixiu’s room.
Unbeknownst to them, inside the room, ixiu was actually experiencing enlightennt, hence why she beca oblivious to the ti.
In the blink of an eye, two days have passed since ixiu entered the Cultivators’ Haven.
"She’s taking longer than I’d expected... It’s already been two days. I hope she’s fine inside." Yuan sighed, and he wondered inwardly, ’Is this what ixiu felt when I didn’t co out of the ga for three whole days? Now that I have experienced it for myself, it certainly doesn’t feel good, and I don’t bla her for worrying.’
"If Brother Yuan is that worried, why don’t you take a look inside with your Divine Sense?" Xiao Hua said to him in a calm voice, clearly aware of what was happening inside the room.
"Oh, right! I forgot I could do that!"
Yuan imdiately closed his eyes and activated his Divine Sense that penetrated the door and walls in the Cultivators’ Haven.
"Oh, I can see ixiu. She looks fine to ." Yuan released a sigh of relief after seeing that she was perfectly fine inside.
"Wait, what’s this weird aura around her? It feels familiar." Yuan suddenly noticed the unfathomable aura around ixiu.
"She is currently experiencing enlightennt," said Xiao Hua.
"Enlightennt? No wonder..." Yuan mumbled.
Now that he found out the reason for ixiu’s delay, Yuan no longer needed to use his Divine Sense. However, right as he prepared to retract his Divine Sense, for so reason, he looked inside the other two rooms that were occupied by soone else.
One of them was a middle-aged man who emitted the aura of a peak Spirit Warrior.
The other person was a young lady with a fairly unique appearance. Long hair that touched the ground, and a golden color made it look as though her silky hair was silk made of gold. Furthermore, she was wearing a pair of luxurious-looking robes, making it seem like she was royalty.
However, what Yuan found the most interesting about this young lady was her cultivation base— or her lack of cultivation base.
Despite being a Spirit Grandmaster, he was unable to see this young girl’s cultivation base, and she looked to be around his age.
Unless this young lady had a much higher cultivation base than him, which was unlikely, Yuan couldn’t figure out why he couldn’t see her cultivation base.
"Xiao Hua, how co I cannot see that girl’s cultivation base?" He decided to ask the expert.
Surely, a Spirit King like Xiao Hua would be able to see her cultivation base, right?
Xiao Hua used her Divine Sense to look at the person Yuan was talking about for a mont before speaking, "That girl is using a cultivation technique to hide her cultivation base, and it’s a fairly powerful one because even Xiao Hua cannot see her cultivation base."
"Even you cannot see her cultivation base?" Yuan was more surprised than Xiao Hua herself, and he wondered whether this young lady was an NPC or a player like him.
Suddenly, the mysterious young girl opened her eyelids, revealing a beautiful pair of azure-colored eyes, and she looked to the ceiling with a deep frown on her face, seemingly unhappy about sothing.
She then stood up and proceeded to leave the room in heavy and angry steps.
Once she was outside, she turned to look at Yuan before pointing at him and shouting, "Hey! I am trying to cultivate here! How dare you peek at while I cultivate?! Did your parents not teach you any manners?!"
"Uhh..."
Yuan was speechless when this fierce-looking beauty suddenly started yelling at him.
"You’re lucky I wasn’t having a breakthrough, or I would’ve smashed your face in by now!" The fierce beauty continued.
"I-I apologize for peeking at you. My curiosity got the better of ." Yuan quickly said to her, as he recognized that he was wrong in this situation.
"What a rude kid—"
The fierce lady suddenly stopped in the middle of her sentence, and her eyes widened in a surprised manner.
"Now that I look at you closely, why are you emitting the aura of a dragon? Are you a dragon?" The fierce beauty suddenly asked him.
"No, I am not." Yuan shook his head.
"Then why... Forget it. If you dare peek at again, I will smash your skull." The fierce beauty said to him before returning to her room and closing it shut.
"I have never seen anyone as fierce as her before..." Yuan mumbled after she left.
Feng Yuxiang’s voice suddenly resounded, "Young Master, that young lady... she’s from one of the Four Ancient Families."
"What? Really? How can you tell?" Yuan asked her.
"Her clothes. I have t with people from the Four Ancient Families before, so I know a little about them, and judging by that young lady’s clothes, she belongs to the Azure Dragon Family." Feng Yuxiang explained.
"Azure Dragon Family? Are they anything like the dragons in the Ancient Dragon City?" Yuan asked, his interest piqued.
"Well... I don’t know anything about the Ancient Dragon City, but judging by what you told us about them, they should be real dragons. The Azure Dragon Family, however, are not really dragons. Instead, they are half-dragons." Feng Yuxiang said.
"Half-dragons? What’s the difference?" Yuan continued to ask.
